We had been invited to hold a workshop at the Bocconi University in Milan, Italy. It was within an AIESEC event, the Youth To Business Forum, focusing on youth and the new world of work. I was definitely going to catch this chance of dancing with young, thirsty and vivid brains. I always love to.

I’ve been asked to speak at a business innovation event in Paris a few weeks ago. The topic of my contribution was “The value-stream driven enterprise”.I wanted to use just a few minutes speaking, and the rest of the time conversing with the audience. Therefore, even though I usually don’t like the “#-steps” recipes, I’ve been focusing my intro on really a few key concepts. Not an easy task though.

Being an entrepreneur isn’t for everyone though making decisions like one gives you the advantage especially when you’re faced with uncertain outcomes or conflicting information.
